Moimmow.v , N. J. , Oct. 23. Rev. Arthur
C. Dill , D. I ) . , of Stirling recently lodged a
complaint with the grand Jury of Morris
county , charging Herbert Gray Torrey , nn
employe of the United States assay ofllco of
New York ; Gray Torroy.hisson , Dick Thorn-
a * , Frederick Tart nnd others wlih conspiracy
nnd assault. After a week's deliberation the
grand Jury has Indicted these complained
against , nnd has found nn additional count
against Herbert Gray Torroy and against
Clarkson B. MofTctt , one of the Justices of Iho
peace of Stirling for conspliocy.
The trouble between Dr. Dili nnd his
neighbors is the outgrowth of B low In the
Presbyterian church at Stirling. It was sala
that Dr. Dili manifested nn ovor-7calous In
terest in certain women of his Hock , and the
report so circulated among the young mon of
the parish that they began a systematic cam
paign against ibu clergyman.
The scandal resulted In a hearing before
Dr. Whlto of Summit , the moderator for the
district. Dr. Dill was nthed to resign his
charge , The young clergyman remained In
Stirling after no had vacated his pulpit nnd
dolled his tormentors. The residents of
Stirling who favored Dr. Dill procured n
hall for him In which to hold services. HoE
reached there for some time whllo the Pros-
E ytcrlan church pulpit was unoccupied.
In the mean time several young men , sons
of members of Dr. Dill's ' former church , nro
said to liavu taken the clergyman's horsoono
Sunday night , and after painting the animal
red , white and blue , led It away to a lonely
spot where it was at forwards found Dr. Dill
stood these attacks as patiently iw ho could
and did not attempt to have his tormentors
arrested.
Dr. Dill's ' brother , James B. Dill , IH a Now
York lawyer. The staid residents of Stir
ling wondered why the lawyer did not conic
to his brother's icseue. Lawyer Dill was ,
however , quietly collecting evidence against
the unsuspecting young countrymen. Ho
had scouts out In all'dlrections nnd aflldavlts
were obtained from persons who knew all
auout a plot to tar and feather Dr. Dill on iho
night of July .
Just about a montn ago n handsome young
clergyman came to visit Stirling. To one of
the ciders who entertained him the handsome
stranger said ho was n Presbyterian clergy
man from Ohio. His speech wns soft and his
clothes were black. Would he preach in the
Stirling church I With pleasure. Nothing
could exceed the young man's affability. Ho
conducted the services with slsrnal success.
Ills sermon was n model for all preachers to
follow. Thnt ovcnlne the delicate ( jucstion
of compensation was bro.iched to the hand-
Boino younir pulpiteer. Whatl Pay him ?
Well , ho would accept n trillo only n sou
venir , you know say $5 ; and the deacons
felt that hero was richness.
The young man preached for two successive
Sundays and gave great satisfaction. I think
I may say without fear of contradiction that
ho got even more satisfaction than ho gave ,
for he slood in the pulpit and expounded
great truths while a dainty pair of steel
bracelets lay hidden In his Inside pocket.
And after ho had gone In and out among the
poorlo and visited loom at tnolr homos , and
talked with them about everything they
know , lo , ho had found out Jubthat ho
wanted to know who the white caps wore
that had offered the tar nnd feathers to the
Rev. Dr. Arthur C. Dill.
That night thn new dominie dropped outof
the clerical profession. Hu still were minis ,
torlal black , but ho softly Jingled a pair of
stcol bracelets as ho walked to the farm house
where 18-year-old Kloinniontx Knnptz was
employed. Ifloinmontz was dclltrhtcd when
the new dominie Invited him out for n walk.
Klemmentx gnspod and said "boo-hoo" when
the parson swiftly slipped the handcuffs on
bis wrists and told him that the Jail doors
were open for all the fellows who had whltu-
cappcd Dominlo Dill. KlcmmcnU was tear
fully lhankful when ho found that ho might
hope for mercy if ho confessed. Ho told all
ho Know and subscribed to the affidavit.
Another detective called on the slstor of
one of the accused younir men , and before
long was In possession of a receipt the young
lady hold for a pistol that her brother had
purchased. As soon as the Dill parly had se
cured all Iho evidence necessaryfour or those
concerned were asked to make iilildiwtts with
out the knowledge of the others. When the
case was presented to the grand Jury n great
deid of contradictory evidence was given hy
the young mon , who did not know of the ex
istence of the affidavits. Ono of these afllda-
vlts alleged that on the afternoon of July 4 ,
IbUI , the witness was in Stirling and was approached
preached by Gray Torroy , with whom ho u
also pcisonidly acquainted ; lhat Gray Tor
roy said to him that ho ( Torrov ) was intend
ing to get some boys tnrcthcr lhat .light and
go over anil catch Dr. Dill and tie him In a
sack and to carry him off over the mountains
into the woods and to tnr and foalhor hlmiind
to leave him there. Ho declined being n part
to Iho Inr and feather business , but said ho
would ho around in the evonliip , Gray Tor
roy having said to him that Iho boys would
moot at thu barn of Clarkson Rf Moffett at S
o'clock , Torroy added : "Wo Intend todrivo
Jjr. Dill out of the place. "
Torroy further said to him that ho had ar
ranged with sou.o of the parties Identltlcd 10
bo present at that time , and asked him lo see
Johnnie Ferris and request him to bo present.
This conversation occurred In the atternoon
at about U o'clock. The witness further says
he went , to the barn of Clurkson R Moltoit
in company with James Travis. A conversa
tion occurred there in which Moffelt took
part. Prod Moffott was also thoro. Soon
after Dick Thomas came with Gray Torrev
in GrayTorroy's buokboard with Gray Tor-
roy'b black horso. It was then proposed lo
tur nnd feather Dr. Dill , and there was aomo
discussion with regard lo what was to bo
done with him after that. The witness re
peated lhat ho would not bo a party to the
tar and feather business , but would go and
coo how the affair turned out. Clarksun R.
Moffott also said ho thought It-would be unwise -
wise to tar and feather Dr Dill becuuso It
might bo discovered and would then lend to
borlous consequences ,
"After some discussion , " the witness con
tinued , "Gray Torroy loft , telling us that wo
should meet at my house that evening about
II o'clock. Torroy added thut Dr. Dill could
bo caught between 11 and 1'j o'clock that
nlflit. At the appointed hour they went to
llr. Dill's house. Dr. Dill was not nt home
anil when Moffelt knocked at iho door Miss
Calhorlno Boyle , with whom ho boarded ,
answered. She said Dr. 1)111 wai not at homo
and might not uo that night. She asked
who wuhcd to see htm nnd Moffott ald
'August Walker. '
"Then all hands hUl under the shade of a
cherry Iron because Moffott said Dr. 1)111
"would arrive about mulnlghl. It was about
midnight when Dr. Dill arrived and as soon
us hu approached the house one of the boys
blandished a pUtol In his face and cried ,
'Halt , or I'll llrul' Dr , Dill retieatod toward
the house and the command was given again ,
Hull , or I'll tiro. ' Dr. Dill , on honringtba
command a third Urns turned the knob and
ran Into the houso. Pistols wnro jlrcd In the
nlr mid there was a great commotion. After
the shooting wo rotmncd to Stirling. Mr.
Herbert Gray Torroy and bis wlfo know
what was going to occur , as both were proa-
cut before wo loft Stirling. "
Among others who tcsililed before the
grand Jury were Rev. Dr. White of Summit
and Key , Dr. Erdman of Morrlstown ,
A reporter called upon Herbert Gray Tor
roy at his office on Wall street , Mr. Torroj
said hu had been partly instrumental In
bringing Dr. Dill to Stirling nnd had felt
bound to bo respectful to htm. Ho hud en
tertained him at his house , where ha was
always welcome until It became known thut
ho was guilty ot Indiscreet net * and was
lowering himself by asaoclallni ; too freely
with the silk mill plrls. Ho did not spenk lo
Dr Dill any moro after lhat mid had forbid
den him lib houso. Ho also worshiped cKo-
whoru whllo Dr , Dill preached at Stirling.
Herbert ( Jrav Torroy will bo tried on two In-

K. I * . Reynolds , Jr. , was there , rbprojent-
Ini ? E. 1' . Uoynolds & Co. , the contractors
who graded the road , and who have o claim
of JOU.OOO for labor.
A few of the other claimants were also
represented , but their number was not so
great as on the former occasion when the
sale wns advertised.
I. V. Mtilionuy. tranto manasjor of the
Sioux City it Northern reid , was nti inter
ested spectator and said , jokingly , that ho
was there to make close tnilllc arrangements
with the purchaser of the Short line.
It was nearly 11 o'clock when Receiver
Ulerbowcr descended the stairs , accompan
ied by Mr. Wickersham , one of the attorneys
representincr the Manhattan Trust company ,
and Georfc'o . Soever of Oskuloosa , the at
torney of the Short 1'no. '
Mr. Ulorbower took a position at the north
door of the federal building and road tno
order of sale , while a largo crowd of people
collected about the stops. The order of the
court ordered the receiver to sell all the main
line , side tracks , depots , rolling stock , shops ,
franchises , etc. , in Nebraska , nnd provided
that not , less than 100,000 of the purchase
price should bo In cash.
Mr. Ulorbowcr thru read a decree of the
court modifying the order of sale in such a
way as to permit holders of claims to lllo
stipulations agreeing to accept securities of
the road in payment of their daiins and pro
viding that the amount of cash required
should bo decreased by the amount of these
claims.
The claims against the road amount to
about $ liKX ( ) .
The receiver then called for bids and Mr.
Wichersham bid $ U,000ODO. There was no
opposition and at Just 11 o'clock Mr. Birk-
bowcr knocked It , down to Messrs. WieUors-
lium and Uarrotson , trusteesfor $2,000,000.
The sale will probably bo continued and
the road turned over to the purchasers about
November 1.
The Sioux City people present
expressed great satlsfaotion at the
result of the sale. It was understood
by them thut the purchasers were backed by
the Manhattan Trust company , and some o'f
tnem expressed tbo opinion tnat.1. M. Hill ,
the Great Northern man , had a hand in the
matter. The fact that the tralllc manager of
the Sioux City & Northern , a Hill road , was
present , added color to this theory , and the
road will bo under the control of the Great
Northern If it is not owned outright by that
company.
Bonus to the amount of2r > S3,000 had been
issued at about 05 cents , and Messrs. Garret-
son and Wicltursham bought them in for 50
cents or less , making u nice little specula
tion.

Why Dr. Price's Baking Powder is
Superior to all othersc
No great efforts are made by other manufacturers
toprocure and use pure materials. .
It is true that one other company has the facilities ,
but its greed and cupidity induced it in an evil hour to use
ammonia , in order to swell its profits. Hence the Price
Baking Powder Company stands alone in its Ifight for a pure
baking powder.
No other article of human food receives greater care
iu its production , or has attained higher pfirfection. Dr.
Price's Cream is surely a perfect baking powder. Free from
every taint of impurity. No other article used in the
kitchen has so many steadfast friends among the house
wives of America.

. 191 &I93 Stale SI. , Chicago.
FECHHEIMEAgQQPKIND & CO. ,
of New York City , have been known for years as manufacturers of the
Finest Clothing for Men made in the whole United States. Goods made ,
by this concern were as well known to the clothing men of this country
as Sapolio to the Belles of the Kitchen , or Pears' Soap to the belles of the
parlor. For reasons not necessary to state at this time , this firm very
recently resolved to dissolve partnership , close out their entire slock
and go out of business. For a number of years we have been among
the best customers that this house has had. Before this stock was offered
to the general public , a few of the largest cash buyers in the land ,
among them our Mr. Strasburger , the member of our firm who lives ill
New York , and who is considered one of the best clothing buyers in this
country , were invited to go through this magnificent stock , just manu
factured for Fall trade , and make their selections. Mr. Strasburger
made the largest purchase made by any one concern. He selected
THE CREAM OF THE STOCK.
He paid spot cash for the goods. He bought goods for less money than
wewere ever able to buy fine goods before. After these few buyers had
culled over the entire stock and selected the good things , the balance of
the stock was thrown on the market at auction. The reputation of this
house was so great that these goods were eagerly snapped up , the bid
ding being so brisk that everything brought good prices , most of them
full regular prices , and intmany cases m o re than F. G. & Co. had ever
asked for them. This immense purchase , which comprises the largest
assortment of
FINE SUITS AND OVERCOATS '
ever shown in this western world , is now on its way to Omaha , and
will arrive in. a day or two. " In the meantime , in order to
to-its lowest possible limit , the man with the red ink has been through
the Suits and Overcoats and marked them all down to the lowest pos
sible notch.
Watch our corner of the "Bee. " It'll be mighty interesting read
ing for the male-portion of our population. Keep your eye on our store.
It's always the busiest spot in Omaha , but from now on it will be
